LAWRENCEVILLE, GA (CBS ATLANTA) -

Rescue workers had to free a man trapped in a tree in Gwinnett County Thursday morning.

It happened in the 1600 block of Park Hollow Lane in Lawrenceville.

The man, who was working in the tree, was injured, possibly by a limb that fell, and became stuck.

The fire engine ladders were not long enough to reach the man so someone had to climb up the tree to reach him.

The extent of the man's injuries are unclear.
